The Digging Deeper series, created by YWJ columnist Barry Shafer, is a creative and versatile resource that invites postmodern students to plunge into the depths of the Christian faith. Each book in the series offers 12 sessions full of faith-building discussion questions, group learning activities and the occasional ice-breaker. In addition, each session is written in six different formats to fit any age group or ministry setting. The accompanying CD-ROM is also a useful tool packed with resources to guide the rookie youth leader or tweak the seasoned veteran.
The greatest perk of the Digging Deeper series is that it invites hurried youth workers to facilitate, teach and experience this depth personally. With a little bit of dedicated prep time, this series will meet students where they are and challenge them to dig deep in their faith.
